Summer Policy & Procedures

Placement:

Students will be placed in classes that are appropriate for their level of physical and mental development. If at any time the director feels that the placement is incorrect, the student will be changed to the appropriate level.

Attendance:

Students are required to take ALL classes offered at their level so that they may continue to advance technically. If they cannot participate due to illness or injury, we advise them to watch if possible. Students should try their best to be on time for class. Classes are not transferable and there are no refunds for classes missed for any reason. In the case of absence, please contact us nsbinc@gmail.com or call 781-944-9100 and leave a reason for absence before class time. Makeup classes must be scheduled in the same semester as missed and if social distancing allows. If NSB is forced to follow a “Stay-at-Home” order, students are required to take their virtual classes at the same time as scheduled. Login info will be sent for Zoom classes and attendance will be taken.

Notices & Cancelations:

Important school notices will be sent electronically through email. Hard copies may be distributed. Notices and schedules, including changes, will also be posted on the NSB school bulletin board. If there is a Stay-at-Home order due to COVID-19, NSB classes will automatically be scheduled on Zoom and login info will be sent.

Drop off and pick up procedures:

Because of limited parking and COVID19, NSB strongly urges parents to drop off and pick up their children. Only registered students will be allowed in the building during school hours. Students should be dropped off on Sanborn Street and walk to the side entrance of the building next to the driveway. Do not drop your child off on Lowell Street and have them cross. After class, students will wait in the lobby area for their parent or guardian to pick them up on Sanborn Street. Students will not be permitted to wait outside of the studio or cross Lowell Street. We strongly urge parents/guardians to be punctual when dropping off and picking up their child(ren). There is NO parking on the right side of Sanborn St. or in the circular driveway; spaces are reserved. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday, please park in the municipal lot next to the building between NSB and town hall.

Please read, NSB is taking the necessary steps while living with COVID, to provide a safe environment for all at our studios.

We ask you, if you have any symptoms of ANY KIND of illness, please remain home.
You should not arrive any earlier than 10 minutes before class. You will need to be picked up punctually after your class. Our lobby cannot accommodate too many students waiting for their ride.
We ask parents to drop off their children to avoid much traffic in the studio. Parents will NOT be allowed in the building unless prior notice is made with the office.
Please come dressed to dance and only change shoes, to avoid using bathrooms and dressing rooms as much as possible. We will use bathrooms and dressing rooms for personal hygiene and not for changing.
Each student should have a bottle of water. There is no sharing of water or food.
